Great idea Obama – give Khalid Sheikh Mohammed grounds for a mistrial
Andy McCarthy at National Review Online writes this:
In a meeting with the press in China, President Obama said that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed would be “convicted” and had “the death penalty applied to him” . . . and then said he wasn’t “pre-judging” the case. He made the second statement after it was pointed out to him — by NBC’s Chuck Todd — that the first statement would be taken as the president’s interfering in the trial process. Obama said that wasn’t his intention. I’m sure it wasn’t — he’s trying to contain the political damage caused by his decision — but that won’t matter. He has given the defense its first motion that the executive branch, indeed the president himself, is tainting the jury pool. Nice work.
The Fix Was In! New York Governor David Paterson was told KSM was going to New York 6 months ago!
You probably heard yesterday that New York Governor David Paterson wasn’t exactly to thrill with KSM and the other Gitmo scum being transfered to New York for civilian trials. But what you might not have heard is another thing Paterson revealed. He said that the White House “warned him” six months ago that this very situation would happen. Paterson said while he disagrees with the decision, he will do everything in his power to make sure that the state’s Department of Homeland Security will keep New Yorkers as safe as possible. The Wall Street Journal also poses this interesting question:
Here’s a question: If the White House made up its mind about this six months ago–that would be in May, roughly four months after President Obama’s inauguration–why did it wait until last week to make the announcement? That it was the week after an election is bound to raise suspicions that the timing was politically motivated.
Virginia Democrat Jim Moran – If you are against bringing Gitmo scum to New York, you are un-american
I’ll say one thing for Democrats. They have sure cornered the market on un-american “slurs” at Americans who disagree with them. For those who don’t know who Jim Moran is, he is a congressman from Virginia’s 8th district. By his Moran’s “logic” 64% of Americans polled by CNN are un-American. According to TPM:
“They see this as an opportunity to demagogue,” he said. “They will seize on any opportunity to do that, and that means they’ll even take a stand that’s un-American.”
“It’s un-American to hold anyone indefinitely without trial,” Moran added. “It’s against our principles as a nation.”
Kinda like when Steny Hoyer and Nancy Pelosi called people who disagree with government’s takeover of healthcare un-american too.

Hey! Lets move Gitmo prisoners to supermax in Thomson Illinois!
Since every day it seems Obama and his porkulus is a complete and utter failure for creating jobs, liberals Dick Durbin (Illinois Senator) and Governor Pat Quinn have instead considered moving about 100 Gitmo scum to a supermax facility in Thomson, Illinois. Despite being completely funded by taxpayers (which democrats always seem to have problems remembering), Obama’s admin “economic impact analysis” says the federal purchase and operation of Thomson could generate $1 billion for the local economy over four years and create between 2,340 and 3,250 jobs according to the Chicago Sun Times. Now isn’t that special?
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four the four other GITMO detainees transfered to New York have been granted full rights and protection under the U.S. Constitution.
As insane as it is that these KSM and the other four muslim terrorist scum are even coming to New York for trial, one thing may have been lost in the translation with this happening. By transfering the GITMO scum, these a**holes now been granted
full rights and protection under the U.S. Constitution. According to the Last Crusade, the trial is expected to cost over $100 million and may drag on for many years. According to American Spectator, former Attorney General Michael Mukasey, who as a judge presided over a trial stemming from the first attack on the World Trade Center, on Friday warned that the Obama administration’s decision to bring 9/11 “mastermind” Khalid Sheikh Mohammed to New York, along with the other GITMO detainees, reflected that pre-9/11 mindset that viewed terrorism as a simple criminal matter. Also, under the Fifth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution:
Mr. Mohammed and the other “alleged” terrorists will have the right to a speedy trial, the right to publicly paid counsel, the right to immediate access to all government evidence – – including the most sensitive intelligent files – – that can be used against him, the right to remain silent, the right to obtain witnesses in his favor, the right of protection against self incrimination, and the right to participate in jury selection.
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four other Gitmo detainees trials in New York
9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four other Gitmo detainees will be sent to of all places New York to face trial in a civilian federal court, an Obama administration official told the Associated Press. Eric Holder claims we are charging them witht he most serious offensives “WE FIND APPROPRIATE”. Obama’s muslim faith is yet again on full display! Senator James Webb (Democrat) isn’t exactly thrilled with the idea either.
Obama considering shipping Gitmo detainees to South Carolina
YOU LIE Obama! Actually, residents of South Carolina better hope he is. According to Fox News, The Navy brig in Charleston, S.C., is “very much in play” as an option to transfer Guantanamo Bay detainees for military commission hearings in the U.S. Some of the sources of the Fox story describe the Naval Consolidated Brig — which has housed at least two enemy combatants since 9/11 — as a leading option being considered by the task force reviewing the Guantanamo issue.

Diane Feinstein wants Gitmo detainees in California
On behalf of this California resident, Diane Feinstein, why don’t you GFYS. I don’t want these terrorist scums on U.S. soil, let alone in my home state. Feinstein, who compared turning on the water for the farmers in Central California to “Pearl Harbor” now would be fine sending the Gitmo detainees to the supermax prisons in California too! This one the heels of California releasing thousands of regular prisoners because of budget problems. Absoutely brilliant! Diane Feinstein is making Barbara Boxer look almost sane.
White House close to choosing U.S. Location to Hold Gitmo Detainees
The White House is close to selecting a U.S. location for some GITMO detainees to be transferred to once GITMO actually closes, Fox News mentions the following quote from an Obama administration official:
“We are in the final stages of locating a secure facility in the U.S. where detainees can be held,” the official told Reuters.
Emergency townhall meeting Standish, Michigan – NO Jidhadist in our backyard!
As Hussein considers to dump the Gitmo terrorists in supermax prisons in America in order to uphold the executive order he signed back in January to close Gitmo by Jan 2010, people are rising up against the prospects of these terrorists not only being allowed on American soil, but basically in their backyards! Michelle Malkin posted info on the emergency town hall called for tommorow:

Pat Roberts threatens to ’shut down the Senate’ over Gitmo detainees
The AP reported Monday that Hussein Obama is examining the Kansas facility as well as a Michigan prison as destination for accused terrorists after they close down the Guantanamo Bay facility. I don’t know how many readers out there are from either Kansas or Michigan, but I wonder what your opinion would be of having these terrorist scum in your state in a “supermax”? Pat Roberts, senator for Kansas isn’t exactly pleased with the idea. According to The Hill:
Sen. Pat Roberts (R-Kan.) threatened to “shut down the Senate” before he allows terrorist suspects to be relocated to Leavenworth, Kansas.
Roberts heatedly pledged to prevent detainees currently housed in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba to be relocated to a prison facility in his home state.
“I’ve said it once. I’ll say it many more times: Not in my back yard. Not in Kansas,” Roberts said in a press conference with Kansas reporters. “I will shut down the Senate before I’ll let that happen.”
Jihad coming to a supermax near you! Beds being cleared for Gitmo detainees
Uh oh! As we’ve gone now over 6 months since Hussein Obama signed the “close Gitmo act by Jan 2010″, and he still has no place to put them as no other countries are willing to take more than 1 or 2, it now appears that the Obama administration is moving around prisoners in an attempt to clear out beds for remaining Gitmo detainees. According to 9/11 Families for a Safe & Strong America:
Since June 30, President Barack Obama has cleared two dozen beds at Supermax for Gitmo detainees and today Senate Democrats will attempt to block a vote on Senator Jim Inhofe’s amendment [S.Amdt.1559] to the Defense Authorization bill (S.1390) for FY 2010. The amendment would prohibit the transfer of detainees from Guantanamo to any facility in the United States. (A final vote on the Defense authorization may come as early as this evening.) In addition, Senator Inhofe is also sponsoring the ‘Guantanamo Bay Detention Facility Safe Closure Act of 2009′ (S.370). We join Sen. Inhofe in asking you to call your Senators [(202) 224-3121] today and demand that they go on record, to vote ‘yea’ or ‘nay’ to keep terrorists out of America.
Previously, there was always a long waiting list to move infamous criminals, prisoners who had repeatedly assaulted guards or fellow prisoners, and high-security prisoners in grave danger in general population into Supermax. When President Obama took office there was one free bed. On June 30, 2009, Supermax inmate Eric Rudolph wrote Fox News saying it is already at capacity, “So even if they decide to move the detainees here I do not know where they would put them.”
In another sign that Jihad may be coming to US soil, Senate Democrats blocked the effort of U.S. Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.) to consider his amendment that would permanently keep the military-run detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba (GITMO) open while preventing terrorist detainees from being transferred to the United States.
STOP the Transfer of Terrorist Detainees – sign the petition!
If you are an American who does not support the transfer of detainees from the detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba (GITMO) to American soil, you can now sign a petition and support Jim Inhofe’s (R-Okla.) amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010. Inhofe will make sure that the Senate Majority and Minority leaders see this petition and are aware of your positions on this important national security matter. Inhofe will also continue fighting to expose the truth about GITMO and the consequences of proceeding with shutting it down.
Obama preparing executive order to indefinitely imprison Gitmo detainees
Stymied by Congress so far, the White House is considering issuing an executive order to indefinitely imprison a small number of Guantanamo Bay detainees considered too dangerous to prosecute or release, two administration officials said Friday, according to Yahoo.
No final decisions have been made about the order, which would be the third major mandate by President Barack Obama to deal with how the United States treats and prosecutes terror suspects and foreign fighters.
That evil Bush was right again! Obama now doesn’t want 17 Chinese Uigher muslims released in US
Dag nabit! That evil chimp Bush was right yet again! Now Obama doesn’t doesn’t want these 17 Chinese Uigher muslims released in America either.
According to tapper:
The Obama administration asked the U.S. Supreme Court Friday to reject a request for a hearing from 17 Chinese Muslims currently being held at Guantanamo Bay Naval Base, arguing they have no right to come to America despite a district judge’s orders last Fall that they immediately be brought to the U.S. and released.
“Petitioners are free to return to their home country, but they understandably do not wish to do so, because they fear inhumane treatment there,” reads the filing, signed by US Solicitor General Elena Kagan, Assistant Attorney General Tony West, and other Justice Department officials. “Petitioners are also free to go to any other country that is willing to accept them.”
Mancow “torture” stunt organized by Jerry Springer?
LOL! Remember ;ast week, when liberals were “Mancow” going nuts supposeably was waterboardied and whined about how it was torture. According to Gawker and Don Surber has all the information that suggests the whole thing may be a hoax. More info from Gawker:
There are three main players in the following sequence of events:
-The first is a Chicago-based publicist named Linda Shafran whose clients include the Jerry Springer and Steve Wilkos shows, in addition to Erich “Mancow” Muller. In describing Shafran our tipster added:
“Linda Shafran is Springer’s current publicist until the show starts shooting in CT. Since Springer is her primary source of income, she’s now trying to help promote Mancow nationally as a shock jock alternative to Howard Stern.”
-The second person involved in this is a man named David Kupcinet. He runs a Chicago-based foundation for veterans called Kup’s Purple Heart Foundation. He is the grandson of Irv Kupcinet, a somewhat legendary Chicago gossip columnist who wrote a column for the Chicago Sun Times for over 60 years. At the behest of a friend, Linda Shafran contacted Kupcinet on Thursday hoping that his relationships with Chicago-area veterans and military personnel could help her find a replacement waterboarder.
-The third person involved here, to a much lesser degree, is another Chicago-based publicist named Kathy Posner. According to our tipster, Posner is Jerry Springer’s former flack and a friend of both Linda Shafran and Erich “Mancow” Muller. According to one of the emails we were forwarded, it was Posner who suggested that Shafran contact David Kupcinet to find a replacement waterboarder.
This idiot they call “mancow” whom i’ve never heard of before this whole torture fiasco has now been on Olberman twice, the latest was to try and clear his name as Olberman begged and pleaded with “Mancow” to admit this was real. “Mancow” proves yet again, how full of losers and dirtbags Chicago is.
The terrorists best hope in the US: Obama
Dick Morris has written a new column in the New York Post regarding Obama, and the Gitmo terrorists, heres a sample:
President Obama is attacking a red herring when he defends his decision to send the worst terrorists at Guantanamo to United States prisons by saying the likelihood of escape from secure federal facilities is very low.
How stupid or arrogant is Obama in regards to Gitmo detainees? “Supermax” Prisons can’t even handle them
Obama is arrogant. Most of us know that. Some thing he’s plain stupid. I don’t, but honestly one has to wonder. Is he stupid? Or is his arrogance just so high he comes off that way? A perfect example with that Caterpillar disaster when he Obama was bragging about how the stimulus was going to save all their, yada yada yada, and then the CEO come out and shot that down immediately. But of a much more serious matter is homeland security. Yesterday in his speech, Obama was bragging about moving the Gitmo detainees to a Colorado “Superman” prison, and how wonderful it would be until they were able to be dealt with. Ummm… Not such much according to this Denver post article:
Moving any large number of terror detainees from Guantanamo Bay to Colorado’s Supermax would require either shuffling current residents out of the Florence prison or expanding its capacity and resolving a long-running battle over adequate prison staffing.
As President Barack Obama and congressional leaders point toward the Colorado federal prison as a possible new home for some of the detainees, one big problem is the bed-space crunch.
Supermax’s approximately 480 concrete cells already are jammed with the likes of Oklahoma City bombing co-conspirator Terry Nichols, Atlanta Olympics bomber Eric Rudolph and other notorious domestic criminals. There also are 33 international terrorists, including Sept. 11 conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui, 1993 World Trade Center bombing mastermind Ramzi Yousef and failed airline shoe bomber Richard Reid.
Obama: Bush was wrong in seeking to prevent terrorist attacks – One of 28 “BLAME BUSH” remarks
During the dueling speeches today with Obama making excuses for closing Gitmo, and Cheney saying how less safe the country is today, one of the more interesting lines (or scary) to come from Obama’s mouth was basically: Bush was wrong in seeking to prevent terrorist attacks instead of prosecuting those who carry them out. Am I to assume now that Obama is no interested in trying to prevent a terrorist attack? Other profound statements from Obama included: OPENING Gitmo caused all the terrorist problems. I’m sorry Mr. Obama, but was Gitmo open during 9/11? WTC 1 in 1993? The USS Cole bombing in 2000? I seem to have forgotten about that. Have we actually had a terrorist attack on American soil since Gitmo opened? And now Obama wants to put the Gitmo detainees in a “Supermax” prison. Apprenetly, Obama doesn’t understand the difference between Supermax prisoners that are citizens, terrorists caught on American soil and those captured on the battlefield. Of course Blame Bush was the theme for the day in Obama’s speech. You could count at least 28 references to blaming Bush.
Most transparent administration ever: Pentagon holding back report showing 1 in 7 freed Gitmo detainees returned to terrorism
Most of us knew about these numbers already, or at least something similar (like the 61 released “victims”) that went back to the battle field mentioned earlier in the year. Now, of all papers, the New York Times? is actually reporting that the Pentagon is supposedably holding back a report showing that 1 in 7 freed Gitmo detainees have returned to terrorism. Protect Hussein’s rep at all costs Pentagon!
BUT BUT BUT! This is the most transparent adminstration ever right! Lets blame Bush!
